This is for my homeboy PantherTEKE...

So, some of my chapter sisters go to leadership conference in GA. Omega also happens to be having a conference there. For some reasons, all the other chapters have a curfew that they have to be in their hotel rooms by a certain time. This is foreign to my chapter but I guess because where were from that would be laughed at. So my sisters wander downstairs and basically run into some Omegas having a grand ol' time in the lobby & around and what not. They are just hanging out and the Omegas begin tell my sisters how they were trying to talk to some girls in a sorority and they all said they have curfews and could not stay downstairs. My sisters inform him that they are in the same organization. The Omegas look and them and exclaim that "that can't be, because you're not white!" My sisters also told me had I gone I would have stuck out something fierce and that they stood out a lot too. We had a good long laugh about it. I love when we get together with other chapters because it's always an experience.

I would just like to emphasize that this thread is regarding possible NPC membership, but I too recommend looking into all orgs. before deciding. I did and knew right away that NPHC wasn't for me and I would have joined a multicultural group but the ones on our campus tend to lean toward a specific ethnicity (mainly the founders'). And that didn't sit well with me at the time. Looking back I would have been at home in one of them, but am very happy in my current group.

(ETA: Please don't get caught up in the whole N/S thing, at the end of the day we're all here because we're Greek or interested in Greek Life. I only brought it up because these were issues that I had to look at prior to joining and I wanted to express my experience for the OP.)
